Indigenous peoples around the world continue to face discrimination and challenges to their land, culture, and rights. They often experience higher rates of poverty, violence, and human rights issues than other groups. While some indigenous communities have gained more recognition, most still struggle to protect their identities and traditional ways of life.

POLSCI MAJOR: INDIGENOUS PEOPLE IN POLITICS AND GOVERNANCE
Are the Indigenous people nowadays powerful?
Are the Indigenous People weaker and worse now? Are they the same as the Indigenous Peoples in Politics and Governance until now?
Indigenous people presently powerful-
No, Indigenous peoples are often disadvantaged and discriminated against by the legal systems of nations, making them even more susceptible to violence and abuse. Indigenous human rights advocates who speak out suffer state-sponsored intimidation and violence. In addition, individuals may be physically attacked and killed just for belonging to an Indigenous people. Indigenous Peoples' peaceful attempts to protect their cultural identity or exercise authority over their ancestral territories, which are often rich in resources and biodiversity, have resulted in charges of treason or terrorism. Indigenous peoples make up 15% of the world's extreme impoverished due to discrimination. They also have greater rates of landlessness, hunger, and internal displacement than other communities worldwide.
Ni weak ba sila karon?
Yes, many of the 110 ethno-linguistic indigenous communities in the Philippines are subject to discrimination, resource degradation, and violent conflict. There are significant rates of unemployment, underemployment, and illiteracy among IP communities, which are often situated in unique ancestral lands. Indigenous peoples' socioeconomic, cultural, and spiritual life depend upon their ancestral territories, yet their land ownership is being diminished and neglected. Are they the same as before? The vast majority of indigenous peoples around the globe have maintained social, cultural, economic, and political traits that are distinctly unique from those of the rest of the national populations. Throughout human history, whenever powerful neighboring peoples extended their territory or distant invaders obtained new areas by force, the customs and livelihoods, and often the very life, of indigenous peoples were at risk. The challenges to the traditions and lands of indigenous peoples, as well as their legal rights as separate groups and citizens, may not necessarily take the same forms as in the past. Indigenous peoples continue to aggressively seek acknowledgement of their identities and ways of life throughout the majority of the globe, notwithstanding the relative success of some groups. Despite cultural and ethnic variety, there are often startling parallels between the issues, complaints, and interests of the many indigenous peoples, as well as their presentations to international forums. These commonalities have been brought to light by the participation of indigenous people and groups at United Nations sessions.
